Presented by Parish Collective West Coast and Forge Canada

Seattle Event - June 6 – 6pm-9pm - at Mars Hill Graduate School - $10 at the door - RSVP here.


Welcome to a ragtag collective of New Parishioners. You are invited to join us in Seattle on the 6th of June in response to the question, “What does faith have to do with place?” Join Michael Frost, Dwight Friesen, and reflective practitioners across Cascadia as we consider a church that is rooted in neighborhoods and linked across the city.

Keynote Michael Frost – is an internationally recognized Australian missiologist and one of the leading voices in the international missional church movement. His books are required reading in colleges and seminaries around the world. The most recent are the highly successful and award-winning The Shaping of Things to Come (2003, co-authored with colleague Alan Hirsch), Exiles (2006) and Re:Jesus (2009).


Facilitator Dwight Friesen - teaches missional contextual theology at Mars Hill Graduate School in Seattle, WA. Dwight speaks, writes, and consults on culture, social systems and Christianity and has facilitated major events around the country. His recent book is "Thy Kingdom Connected": a practical theology of networks. A new book he co-authored exploring the history and future of the evangelical movement will be released this year.
